i dont know what apostasy is, but....
no religion practices "freedom of religion". it is their way, or the highway (to hell, that is)
for instance, catholics dont say that it is okay for the congregation to follow the jewish, islamic, budhist or protestant faith. they want catholics to be catholic.

Qu'ran speaks of Disbelievers/Kuffar whilst it states freedom for determination of religion. The Kuffar are unfastened to settle for Islam or reject it. there is Compulsion in faith for them, nor are they to be compelled to settle for Islam. Qu'ran- 3:ninety, Speaks of Muslims. A Muslim whom rejects Islam (an apostate) would be Punished, there Repentance heavily isn't usual. A Muslim who has long previous off aim would be punished in this existence in accordance to regulation, is loss of life.

Rejection of belief in God will surely have consequences in the afterlife. However, it is up to God to determine these consequences. Such future determination has no bearing on the respect of the humanity of every person in this life. After all, the human is a free agent, and as such, each is individually responsible before God for his or her beliefs and moral choices. A person can be held accountable in this life only if such a moral choice infringes on the rights of individuals or society, such as the commission of crimes or acts of aggression. In other words, no human is entitled to dehumanize or punish another on the sole ground that the later is following a different religion or no religion at all. This value implies that peaceful co-existence among followers of all religions and respecting their humanity is not only possible, but also mandated in the Qur’an.
In numerous verses in the Qur’an, compulsion in religion is forbidden:
[There shall be no coercion in matters of faith.] (Al-Baqarah 2:256)
[And so (O Prophet), exhort them; your task is only to exhort. You cannot compel them (to believe). As for one who turns away, being bent on denying the truth, him or her will God cause the greatest suffering (in the life to come). For verily, unto Us will be their return, and verily, it is for Us to call them to account.] (Al-Ghashiyah 88:21-26)
[Had your Lord so willed, all those who live on earth would surely have attained faith, will you then compel people, against their will, to believe?] (Yunus 10:99)
Some Muslim countries go against this although it's clearly against Islam to punish an individual for the chose he/she made concerning faith. We are all answerable to God.
It's strange to me to see some Muslim countries doing this because in Islam, Allah does not accept any deed if it's not done with conviction and pure intentions. Like if I pray cause my mom forced me too, my prayer is invalid according to Islamic doctrine. My prayer will have to be repeated with sincerity and conviction, if i want it to be accepted. How some Muslims don't put this into prespective is beyond me.
